What brought you to Thane?<br \/>\nHonestly value for money- Size of the flat, it looks &#8211; and actually is &#8211; spacious. Love the location, the well maintained Hiranandani Estate.<\/p>\n<p>2. How would you rate Thane&#8217;s overall quality of life compared to your previous city?<br \/>\nI relocated from western suburbs in Mumbai, Thane is not just better, but also less congested.<\/p>\n<p>3. What do you love most about Thane so far?<br \/>\nThe city is obviously good, but let me share my thoughts on Hiranandani Estate. The vibe, the planned township, proper maintenance. Plus, availability of brands, restaurants and movies hall.<\/p>\n<p>4. How&#8217;s the connectivity (transport, roads, metro) in Thane?<br \/>\nOverall good, but I have a concern, while massive improvement is expected over the next 12-15 months, there\u2019s too many on-going infrastructure projects and very<br \/>\nfew completed ones \u2013 the Metro is an apt example.<\/p>\n<p>5. Have you explored Thane&#8217;s green spaces (parks, lakes, etc.)? What do you think?<br \/>\nYes, its absolutely awesome &#8211; and well maintained.<\/p>\n<p>6. How&#8217;s the cost of living in Thane compared to your previous city?<br \/>\nThane offers more value for money.<\/p>\n<p>7. What amenities are you most happy to have nearby (schools, hospitals, shopping, etc.)?<br \/>\nAcademic institutions, Medicare facilities and organised retail\/ entertainment options. Plus, it is a safe and secure city.<\/p>\n<p>8. Any favorite local spots or hidden gems you&#8217;ve discovered?<br \/>\nI find the Thane\u2019s lakes the essential hidden gems \u2013 and these are very interesting. Across Thane, you have lakes that represent a small ecosystem in that region. Upvan and Kavesar are among my favourite lakes in Thane.<\/p>\n<p>9. Would you recommend Thane to others looking to relocate? Why?<br \/>\nYes. It\u2019s the ideal city to relocate to.<\/p>\n<p>10. Any tips for newcomers to Thane?<br \/>\nYou need the right sort of support and guide when house hunting. Digital platforms work for some; real estate consultants are also a good alternative. I found my dream home through a broker, Dinesh Chadda, and I found him to be professional and extremely helpful, he helped me with options and basis my budget. I guess such a good city will also have equally good property consultants, trustworthy and knowledgeable about Thane\u2019s property market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mainak Pal National Head- Sales, BFSI &#8211; NBFC 1.
